Group 1 - China is implementing subsidy policies to encourage the purchase of domestic semiconductor memory products, with Chinese DRAM and NAND being 23% cheaper than products from other countries, and potentially up to 50% cheaper when subsidies are considered [1][2] - The presence of large Chinese companies in the semiconductor memory market is increasing due to technological innovation and improved price competitiveness, which is contributing to a decrease in global bulk trading prices [1][2] - Yangtze Memory Technologies Co. (YMTC) is expanding its market share in the NAND sector, while Changxin Memory Technologies (CXMT) is growing in the DRAM sector, primarily targeting the domestic market [1][2] Group 2 - The price of NAND-based solid-state drives (SSDs) has decreased, with the price of the benchmark TLC 256GB dropping by 8% to around $29.9 in the first quarter [2] - Changxin Memory Technologies has successfully mass-produced products using hybrid bonding (HB) technology earlier than Korean competitors, with their products reaching a maximum of 267 layers [5] - The price of DDR4 8GB has dropped to around $1.70, and 4GB products are at $1.30, marking a continuous decline over six months, influenced by the rise of Changxin Memory Technologies [5] Group 3 - Demand for NAND and DRAM is weakening due to sluggish sales of personal computers and smartphones, leading to a decrease in prices [6] - Approximately 50% of DRAM is used in personal computers and data center servers, while about 35% is used in smartphones [6] - There are indications that inventory levels may decrease sooner than expected, which could lead to increased demand for DDR4, DDR5, and high bandwidth memory (HBM) [6]

中国正在实施鼓励购买本国半导体存储器的补贴政策。调查公司TechInsights等的数据显示，中国产 DRAM和NAND比其他国家的产品便宜23%，如果考虑到补贴，最多能便宜50%左右…… 由于个人电脑和智能手机的销售增长乏力，NAND和DRAM也受到需求减弱的影响，消费者的 观望情绪也在一定程度上导致了价格下跌。据悉，DRAM中约有50%用于个人电脑和数据中心 的服务器设备，约35%用于智能手机。然而，近期市场出现变化，"有权威调研机构指出库存 可能会比预期更早减少，这成为契机，DDR4、DDR5以及高带宽存储器（HBM）等的需求正 在增强"，一位电子元器件贸易公司的负责人表示。 从NAND来看，一些大型制造商正在减产，缩减供应的趋势仍在持续。有观点认为，如果服务 器等的需求增强，半导体存储器的价格将在年内转向上涨。最早可能在4～6月的大宗交易价 格上出现触底的迹象。 版权声明：日本经济新闻社版权所有，未经授权不得转载或部分复制，违者必究。 在向中国销售其他国家产品时，不得不考虑中国产品的价格。因此，在作为半导体存储器一 大市场的中国降价将波及全球。从以NAND为主要零部件的存储装置固态硬盘(SSD)1～3 ...
